No one who lives in him keeps sinning John 3:6 part two

This Biblical commentator and Ambassador for Christ is quite serious whenever
I stated:  "Just because you are born again, doesn't give you the license to sin!"

Dear friends now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been
made known.  But we know that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we
shall see him as he is.  1 John 3:2

Everyone who has this hope in him purifies himself, just as he [ Jesus Christ]
is pure.  Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact sin is lawlessness.  But you
know that he has appeared [on earth] so that he might take away our sins.  And
in him. there is no sin.  No one who lives in him keeps on sinning.  No one who
continues to sin has either seen him or known him.  1 John 3:3-6

If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth, [of God] is not
in us.  If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to 
cleans us [purify us] from all unrighteousness.  1 John 1:8-9.

For what I [Paul] have received I have passed on to you as in first importance.
that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried
that he was raised from the dead on the third day according to the Scriptures.
1 Corinthians 15:3-4

If there is no resurrection of the dead, than not even Christ has been raised. 
And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your
faith.  1 Corinthians 15:13 

More than that, we are now found to be false witnesses about God, for if we 
have testified about God that he has raised Christ from the dead. But he did 
not raise him if in fact the dead are not raised, than Christ has not been raised 
either.  1 Corinthians 15:14-15

And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.
Than those who have fallen asleep [ physically died] in Christ are lost. If only
in this life we have hope in Christ, we are to be pitted more than all men. 1
Corinthians 15:16

If Christ wasn't ever intended to:  first defeat the works of the devil, present
Himself as the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, to rescue
all of those who believed in Him.  All from the forces of death, hell and the
grave; than Jesus Christ would have never left heaven and came down to
earth in the first place.  

The Jews would be still sacrificing birds and animals and the gentiles 
would have perished in their sins.  Until they became converted to
Judaism. But GOD rescued us from the grave!
